Customers are enthusiastic about the Inspiron 11.6" Touch-Screen Laptop's compact size, touch screen, and color. They appreciate that it is small and portable, with a responsive touch screen and an attractive color. However, some customers have expressed concerns about its slow performance.
I have owned a dell 3147 in the past and the 3168 is an improvement in some areas. Colors are nice, I bought this model the red. You can upgrade the ram to 8gb and the Hard drive to SSD. The processor is not a true powerhouse, it is based on the Atom processor and is the N3700 series, Intel calls it "Pentium" but as its a quad core, the graphics are not as good as Icore processors. Is this enough for many people? YES, it runs office well, it surfs the internet well, you can watch movies and you tube. The touch screen is responsive. It has 2 usb 2.0 ports, 1 USB 3.0 and HDMI ports, it has a micro SD card slot. The hinges are strong and reliable, there is little flex in the body. Sound is pretty good for a little computer. Battery life is 6 to 8 hours ( have no idea how to 10 to 12) So whats there not to like? The quality of the screen is cheap. It functions well but its barely HD quality and it does not many good viewing angles. to get good battery life you give up processing power but the N3710 is powerful enough for many tasks ( do not get the Celeron it really under-performs) This is not a good gaming computer but good for taking notes

Got this for my wife to use on her new job. Needed small and light weight to take on her job. Had all the features she wanted. i.e. Touch screen, memory, power, hot spot, and BB matched a competitors price This computer is doing great.

Pros: - beautiful computer - keyboard types like a dream - good speaker sound - touchscreen Cons: - unbelievably slow processor. Somehow slower than my 2011 Inspiron with viruses - abysmal battery life - screen resolution could be better Honestly, skip it. Should have bought a Chromebook.
